Question 1

How do they compare to Duracell?

Accepted Answer

My last 4 purchases of Duracell's over the previous 3 years, AA, AAA, 9 volt and D sizes, had an unreasonable number, 40 percent, that leaked even though they were fresh dated, used and stored in home at room temperatures. A smaller percentage, 20 percent, were fresh dated brand new and found to be dead. This quality problem with Duracell is not just with Amazon purchases, but Duracell purchases from Home Depot, Lowes and Walgreens as well. I've had it with Duracell's poor quality and leaking batteries, and have since replaced, and thrown away all new and used Duracell batteries in the trash where they belong. Duracell used to be a quality product, but not any more.

Question 2

what is the guarantee date on these batteries

Accepted Answer

Purchased in 4/23 batteries show an expiration date of 8/23. I would not have purchased had I known of the very short expiration date. I won't buy Amazon Basics Batteries again because of this.

Question 3

How long do these last on the bose QC 25s and do you think they would easily last me a year if i go through 2-3 rechargeable aa battery chargesa week?

Accepted Answer

Bose qc uses AAA size not AA. Bose says alkaline battery last about 35 hours. 48 batteries will provide about 1600 hours of use but likely less if headphones are left on when not listening.

Question 4

I am less interested in which battery last 5 minutes longer and more interested in what batteries leak the least. which leak least?

Accepted Answer

Decent batteries should not leak even IF you put something away. I’ve had things with batteries in items left for 4-5-6 years. Opened, batteries dead...no leakage!!!!  I have used Duracell, Energizer, Walmart, IKEA, CVS brand batteries. In 40 years NEVER had a battery leak!!! Won’t buy these now thst people claim they “ may” leak!!! Maybe that’s why so cheap!!!
